Something is terribly, terribly wrong! This is the first year in who knows how many years that there hasn’t been constant complaints about a late freeze, hot temps, no rain, bad storms, the dog ate them or aliens did weird medical experiments on the peaches.

I put up 13 half pints of peach jellies and 6 qts of fresh slices in the freezer this week. ;)

I love peach anything; don’t like it too sweet because then you can’t taste the peaches-which I actually like the flavor of.
Peach ice cream-homeade-is to die for. Peach turnovers made with a buttery pastry is the best.

I wish we had good peaches up here in New England. Might have to go online and find me some good peaches to order...

To walk into a produce section and smell peaches, is a little slice of Heaven to me...

My neighbor has a peach tree and one limb hangs over the fence into my yard. The branch is full of smallish peaches about the size of an apricot. The whole tree is loaded. I saw the neighbor out picking some of them yesterday he filled what looked like a 2 gallon bucket. I figured they had ripened so I went out and checked the ones on my side and picked one. All are still very hard and no peachy aroma but their color is nice. I wonder what he is going to do with all those hard unripe peaches?
